I've just upgraded from an AM2 5000 to an AM2 5400 and when I restarted my PC windows XP Pro SP2 would not boot properly, without pressing F2. And then it still meant I had to do a complete re-install to get Windows to run properly. Other than that the change-over was very simple, although it would pay to upgrade your mobos bios to the latest one.
